1 2 Motion 2-1 Speed, Velocity, and Acceleration Speed vs. Velocity Distance: How far something travels. Displacement: How far something travels in a given direction. Notice that these two terms are very similar. Distance is an example of what we call a scalar quantity. In other words, it has magnitude, but no direction. Displacement is an example of a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction. The SI unit for distance and displacement is the meter (m). Displacements smaller than a meter may be expressed in units of centimeters (cm) or millimeters (mm). Displacements much larger than a meter may be expressed in units of kilometers (km). See Appendix A for the meanings of these and other common prefixes. Speed: How fast something is moving. distance traveled d average speed or elapsed time Velocity: How fast something is moving in a given direction. displacement d f d o average velocity or elapsed time t f t o where d f and t f are the final position and time respectively, and d o and t o are the initial position and time. The symbol (delta) means change so is the change in position, or the displacement, while is the change in time. In this book all vector quantities will be introduced in an equation with bold type, while all scalar quantities will be introduced in an equation in regular type. Note that speed is a scalar quantity while velocity is a vector quantity. 9
2 The SI unit for both speed and velocity is the meter per second (m/s). When traveling in any moving vehicle, you rarely maintain the same velocity throughout an entire trip. If you did, you would travel at a constant speed in a straight line. Instead, speed and direction usually vary during your time of travel. If you begin and end at the same location but you travel for a great distance in getting there (for example, when you travel in a circle), you have a measurable average speed. However, since your total displacement for such a trip is zero, your average velocity is also zero. In this chapter, both average speed and average velocity will be written as. The av subscript will be dropped in later chapters. Acceleration Acceleration: The rate at which the velocity changes during a given amount of time. change in velocity v v f v o acceleration or a elapsed time t f t o where the terms v f and v o mean final velocity and initial velocity, respectively. The SI unit for acceleration is the meter per second squared (m/s 2 ). If the final velocity of a moving object is smaller than its initial velocity, the object must be slowing down. A slowing object is sometimes said to have negative acceleration because the magnitude of the acceleration is preceded by a negative sign. Solved Examples Example 1: Benjamin watches a thunderstorm from his apartment window. He sees the flash of a lightning bolt and begins counting the seconds until he hears the clap of thunder 10. s later. Assume that the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s. How far away was the lightning bolt a) in m? b) in km? NOTE: The speed of light, m/s, is considerably faster than the speed of sound. That is why you see the lightning flash so much earlier than you hear the clap of thunder. In actuality, the lightning and thunder clap occur almost simultaneously. a. Given: 340 m/s Unknown:? 10.0 s Original equation: Solve: (340 m/s)(10. s) 3400 m 10 Motion
3 b. For numbers this large you may wish to express the final answer in km rather than in m. Because kilo means 1000, then km m km m 3.4 km m The lightning bolt is 3.4 km away, which is just a little over two miles for those of you who think in English units! Example 2: Example 3: Example 4: On May 29, 2005, Danica Patrick was named the first female Indy 500 Rookie of the Year after her 4 th place finish; the best Indy 500 finish of any woman in the event s history. Danica completed the race in a time of h. What was Danica s average speed during the mi race? NOTE: Generally the unit miles is not used in physics exercises. However, the Indianapolis 500 is a race that is measured in miles, so the mile is appropriate here. Don t forget, the SI unit for distance is the meter. (Read more about the Indy 500 at Given: d mi Unknown:? h Original equation: mi Solve: mi/h h The slowest animal ever discovered was a crab found in the Red Sea. It traveled with an average speed of 5.70 km/y. How long would it take this crab to travel 100. km? Given: 100. km Unknown:? 5.70 km/y Original equation: 100. km Solve: 17.5 y A long time! 5.70 km>y Tiffany, who is opening in a new Broadway show, has some limo trouble in the city. With only 8.0 minutes until curtain time, she hails a cab and they speed off to the theater down a m-long one-way street at a speed of 25 m/s. At the end of the street the cab driver waits at a traffic light for 1.5 min and then turns north onto a m-long traffic-filled avenue on which he is able to travel at a speed of only 10.0 m/s. Finally, this brings them to the theater. a) Does Tiffany arrive before the theater lights dim? b) Draw a distance vs. time graph of the situation. Solution: First, break this exercise down into segments and solve each segment independently. Segment 1: (one-way street) Given: m Unknown:? 25 m/s Original equation: m Solve: 40. s 25 m>s Motion 11

The motion of the cab can be described by the following graph. In Segment 1, the distance of m was covered in a fairly short amount of time, which means that the cab was traveling quickly. This high speed can be seen as a steep slope on the graph. In Segment 2, the cab was at rest. Notice that even though the cab did not move, time continued on, resulting in a horizontal line on the graph. In Segment 3, the distance of m was covered in a much longer amount of time so the cab was traveling slowly. This low speed is indicated by a slope that is not as steep as that in segment 1. Remember, all graphs should have titles and the axes should be labeled with the correct units. 12 Motion

What was the acceleration of Grace s car? Given: v o 30 m/s Unknown: a? v f 0 m/s Original equation: a 3.0 s v f v o 0 m>s 30 m>s Solve: a 10 m/s s The negative sign means the car was slowing down. v f v o Practice Exercises Exercise 1: Hans stands at the rim of the Grand Canyon and yodels down to the bottom. He hears his yodel echo back from the canyon floor 5.20 s later. Assume that the speed of sound in air is m/s.

If the flying disk was thrown horizontally with a speed of 13.0 m/s, how long did the flying disk remain aloft? (Jack Roddick was also a physics teacher!

She must get from one side of the school to the other by hurrying down three different hallways. She runs down the first hallway, a distance of 35.0 m, at a speed of 3.50 m/s. The second hallway is filled with students, and she covers its 48.0-m length at an average speed of 1.20 m/s. The final hallway is empty, and Suzette sprints its 60.0-m length at a speed of 5.00 m/s. a) Does Suzette make it to class on time or does she get detention for being late again? b) Draw a distance vs. time graph of the situation. a) First hallway: /v (35.0 m)/(3.50 m/s) 10.0 s Second hallway: /v (48.0 m)/(1.20 m/s) 40.0 s Third hallway: /v (60.0 m)/(5.00 m/s) 12.0 s 10.0 s 40.0 s 12.0 s 62.0 s This is 2 s after the bell rings, so Suzette is late. a. she is 2 s late b) Exercise 5: A jumbo jet taxiing down the runway receives word that it must return to the gate to pick up an important passenger who was late to his connecting flight.

If the sound of the impact is heard s after the torpedo was fired, what is the speed of sound in water? (Because the torpedo is held at a constant speed by its propeller, the effect of water resistance can be neglected.)
